Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

The active substance of Rinostop, xylometazoline, belongs to the group of alpha-adrenergic agonists with local vasoconstrictor effects. Alpha adrenergic agonists are drugs that stimulate alpha adrenergic receptors , located in the walls of blood vessels and reacting to adrenaline , norepinephrine and other substances with a similar effect.

When applied to the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, the drug causes a narrowing of the blood vessels located in it, but is almost not absorbed into the blood and does not have a general (systemic) effect on the human body. This helps to reduce blood flow in the veins and significantly reduce the perspiration of the liquid part of the blood through the walls of blood vessels. As a result, swelling of the mucous membrane is quickly relieved and nasal breathing is restored. The amount of nasal discharge also decreases. Eliminating swelling in the nasal cavity also improves the condition of the hearing aid.

At the same time, the drug does not have a negative effect on the mucous membrane, including its ciliated epithelium, which cleanses the nasal cavity of foreign particles. Long-term use of drops or spray (more than 5-7 days in a row) can lead to paresis of the smooth muscles of blood vessels and their prolonged dilation, accompanied by persistent swelling and nasal congestion.

The effect of the drug begins a couple of minutes immediately after it has been applied to the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and can last for several hours.

The cold remedy Rinostop® Extra (oxymetazoline) has a vasoconstrictor effect. When applied topically to the inflamed mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, it reduces swelling, nasal congestion, and nasal discharge, eliminating the symptoms of rhinitis. Restores nasal breathing. Elimination of swelling of the nasal mucosa helps restore aeration of the paranasal sinuses and middle ear cavity, which prevents the development of bacterial complications (sinusitis, sinusitis, otitis media).

The duration of action of Rinostop® Extra is up to 12 hours.

Pharmacokinetics:

When administered locally intranasally, the drug does not have a systemic effect. The half-life of oxymetazoline when administered intranasally is 35 hours. 2.1% of oxymetazoline is excreted by the kidneys and about 1.1% through the intestines.
